Event scheduler based on first available meeting time

Posted on by Vipin_Sirigiri

Hi,

I'm new to flow and need to schedule an outlook event based on an individual's free time.

Here's what I'm trying to do.

1. My trigger is when a List item is created

2. Using action, 'Find meeting times'

3. Using the first suggested time, create an action 'Create Event'

However, since the action 'Find meeting times' returns 5 items, 'Apply to each' is getting auto-created and the flow is creating 5 events. Is there a way (perhaps, using the first function or any expression) that I could create an event only for the first meeting time?

Attaching my flow below:

Thanks,

Vipin

Hi @Vipin_Sirigiri

Use the below expression to extract the start and end times of the 1st available slot of the meeting free time:

Start: body('Find_meeting_times_(V2)')?['meetingTimeSuggestions'][1]['meetingTimeSlot']['start']['dateTime'] End: body('Find_meeting_times_(V2)')?['meetingTimeSuggestions'][1]['meetingTimeSlot']['end']['dateTime']

Hope this Helps!

Does this also account for available meeting locations? Is there a way to also have it check available conference rooms?

Hi Yashag,

Is there a way to make you choose from multiple dates from like an approval?

Cheers
